62 Lancer Carbon Fiber Hood
This is the deal. I have 62 Lancer GT, years back I was not able to locate any lightweight body components. I have experience with FG and CF for many decades.
So I built my own mold for hand lay up. First Lancer hood, had a few blemishes, weighed 11lbs? I sold it with full disclosure and buyer seemed happy. It is pictured here. Built another and corrected the issues.
The problem now is I am adding an intercooler exhaust vent to the mold, so no more stock hoods soon will ever be available from me. I don't intend to make this a business, availability will be limited, and I am retired.
So if you want one speak up, hoods must be painted, as UV epoxy is rather costly and I don't get anal about the fabric orientation for looks, I include an internal layer of kevlar 5.5oz and sandwich foam for thickness. There is no fiberglass whatsoever. I have little interest in doing FG, those days are behind me. These are race items need minor prep for painting and are for pinned retention. Current CF pricing Lancer hood $850 + shipping or PU, approx 4 week delivery
Ask also about 62 Lancer custom CF trunks for around $600.
